EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning relief image of Africa, captured by the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) in 2000, showcases the diverse topography and geographical features of the continent. The print includes data for all of Africa, as well as Madagascar and the Arabian Peninsula. The central latitudes of Africa are dominated by the awe-inspiring Great Rift Valley, stretching from Lake Nyasa to the Red Sea. To the west lies the vast expanse of the Congo Basin, while most of Southern Africa rests on a concave plateau known as the Kalahari basin. The color-coding used in this image is directly related to topographic height. Lower elevations are depicted in shades of brown and yellow, gradually transitioning to green and finally white at higher elevations. Blue areas represent water within each mapped tile, including shorelines or islands. This remarkable image offers a unique perspective on Africa's physical geography. It allows us to appreciate its varied landscapes – from towering mountain ranges and deep valleys to expansive basins and plateaus. The intricate details captured by SRTM provide valuable insights into understanding Earth's dynamic processes that have shaped this magnificent continent over millions of years. Universal History Archive's World History Archive presents this print with utmost precision and clarity, inviting viewers to explore Africa's natural wonders through an artistic lens.
